How will it help you?

Used correctly, a website can be a great tool for every part of your business i.e. sales, marketing, customer service, support, etc. Assuming the basics are done correctly, the success of the website will depend on the quality of the content and the online marketing (search engine optimisation, search engine marketing, social media marketing, etc.). For many businesses, their website is their primary sales tool. We can build and market a great website which will deliver (measurable) sales leads.

Ask yourself a simple question. If you are looking for a certain product/service and if company A has a basic 3 page website with limited product information and company B has a much larger website with detailed product information, which company would you contact?

What will it cost?

We specialise in building websites with a responsive design and a content management system. As each project is unique, we will need to quote you with a once-off web design cost. This provides you certainty regarding the cost. While some companies charge by page (which limits your business/website), we quote on the anticipated time it will take to complete the project properly according to your budget.

As a guide, the once off cost of a 5 to 8 page website with a responsive design and content management system will start from around R12 500. This excludes your annual co.za domain registration (R199 per year), monthly web hosting package (depends on package), optional website maintenance and online marketing (like SEO, Google Ads, etc.). We believe in transparency and will always try to advise you of costs in advance.

The lifespan of a website is about 5 years, so it’s important to think about your medium to long term requirements rather than just considering the initial cost. Our honest advice to our clients is to allocate a budget towards online marketing in order to generate traffic to your website. You should be spending significantly more on online marketing than on the website design so in order to get the maximum benefit from your online marketing efforts, it’s imperative that you get your website done properly. Potential customers are searching online, you have to ensure that your business is competing for that business.

What is Responsive Web Design?

Responsive web design (RWD) is a web design approach aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience on any type of device (smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktop PC’s). This includes easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning and scrolling – especially important on mobile devices. This is extremely important considering that over two thirds of all web traffic is generated by mobile devices.

Built for SEO

We build websites with SEO in mind. Therefore, the process of optimising your website will be very simple and more affordable. Our designs are coded well which helps search engines such as Google, Bing, etc. to easily index your website. This gives your business a competitive advantage and helps your efforts to get a better search engine ranking. Although there are many factors that contribute to SEO, we’ve got the technical aspects of coding your website sorted.

UI & UX Design

While some are only now realising the importance of User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) Design, we have always built our websites to be not only visually appealing but also built with the website user in mind. The result is a website with a clean design that is user-friendly and easy to navigate. By using the latest design trends, we deliver websites that are fresh, trendy and stylish.

Room for growth

Our websites are built using with a content management system which allows room for growth. Additional features and content (like pages or products) can be easily and cost-effectively added. This gives you peace of mind as your company grows and your requirements evolve.

Keep it current / Easy to update
